[05:35 pm, June 10, inside a bar of the commercial district]

[Ekaterina]

‘’I tell you right here and now that you need to stop your whining about the damn Rafale already!’’

‘’I’m not whining! It’s objectively true and fact that it’s both more responsive and faster than the Typhoon, don’t you know that its Mount Pylons are actually more responsive and FLEXIBLE? Someone like me that cover our samurai could really use it but noooo I’m stuck with inferior brit engineering focused on doing everything instead of…’’

Fed up with Alexandrine rant, you look away from her discussion with Alfonso, both of them sitting side by side and talking loud enough to be heard all over the small bar, despite the apparent hostility you don’t feel too much negativity coming from them, they’re color hover between a sort or purplish red and a more proper, bright one, that inevitably fills you with a sort of instinctive dread.

A simple ad managed to provoke them, but you suppose it isn’t that odd for pilot to be that stubborn with TSF.

Regardless, the bar that the Italian was indeed very homely and relaxing, you expected some kind of place with tatamis and paper walls, instead the place looked tailor made for foreigners with nice comfy tables, televisions, darts, even a pool table on the second floor…
It really deserved the adjective homely.

Of course your little group weren’t the only ones present; there were a couple of oddballs here and there drinking leisurely and having their own conversations, most of them people of TSM due to the badges on one of their shoulders which helped reduced the awkwardness of the ongoing argument, but to say you didn’t felt out of place would be a total lie, after all this is the very first time you’ve stepped into a bar and you’ve yet to take any alcohol to boot due to… lack of opportunities.

You had quite the sheltered life.

You look toward Shigeko and quickly glance away to refrain your laughter, your mentor wasn’t exactly forthcoming with the trip inside the city but she put up with it to accompany you, somehow though she got into her head to try and conceal her identity; not only did she keep her ‘’Top Sword’’ cap but she also put a pair of aviator sunglasses on her face and kept them on during the entire trip.

You’ve started to suspect that she may… take a certain pleasure out of self-derision, or her taste in clothing is absolutely abysmal, it’s a small mercy to have issued clothing mirroring the UN uniforms in that case.

Unlike Mirabelle and Alfonso you don’t have to make a single effort to pluck out a color from her, which was a strange bright silver-blue. You aren’t exactly certain how to interpret it but she’s in a deep conversation with Adam, your CO and unlike the couple of fanatics they are keeping themselves quiet, meaning that you can’t overhear at your distance.

‘’Feeling alone?’’

Coming straight from behind you, an unfamiliar voice make you jump and you look sideway toward the only remaining member of your squad not locked in some kind of conversation that’d be too rude to interrupt.

You wrack your brain to remember her name as she take place beside you, you remember seeing her during your…eventful first day in the TSF carrier, a calm, collected woman with chocolate skin and dark tomboyish hair bright eyes, you couldn’t find someone more different unless it were a man; the only kind of similarity the two of you have is found in height and as you stay silent and uncomfortable, you decide to use your powers to pluck something more convenient then her simple immediate emotions – which are a simple blue -.

‘’Hmm? Is something the matter?’’

After ten hard seconds of concentration you finally managed to remember her name by recalling the day before your coma, reading minds will forever be out of reach you’ll have to satisfy yourself with emotions.

You take a moment to look at the Eishi, Berenice Salama, before answering; her face is plastered with a peaceful smile that you’d almost describe as motherly.

‘’No, nothing just a bit… dazed’’

That’s not an excuse, you do feel relatively light headed, not to mention your thighs hurts, you’ve been rubbing them constantly.

‘’Huhu, I hear Shigeko wasn’t very kind with you today…’’

You grimace, but then her emotions change as her face change into a frown, she even goes as far as gazing toward the occupied Royal Guard.

‘’…and I’ll have a few words with her regarding that, you just came out of a coma.’’

‘’N-no I feel fine!’’

You even go as far as slapping your leg for emphasis and camouflage your next grimace of pain; how the hell will you survive this training?

‘’Hmm…’’

The woman doesn’t answer, instead shifting her gaze to you and Shigeko enough time to make you feel awkward until she finally pick up the conversation again.

‘’Those two are talking about our possible next operations, sorry that this solemn welcoming party but hey, the night is still young I’ll try to make up for it alright?’’

She also add a wink as her emotions appear into a crystal clear, blue color, you simply nod feeling half stunned.

>Say that you don’t really need any party
>Ask her about what possible theaters the outfit is going to.
>Ask her about the history of this ‘’Terre Sans Mur’’
>Ask things about Berenice instead, her past.
>Get drunk early for the first time in your life.

[Ekaterina]

From there, silence between you and Berenice stretched almost indefinitely as you recalled the rest of today, not only the training, but your awakening inside the infirmary coupled with how you’ve looked over Shigeko past like an open book and the subsequent discussions…
Yeah, you had a hard day for sure.

‘’I’ll huh…’’

You stop talking as Berenice looks you over and shift your attention to the two arguing Eishi who seem to have thankfully calmed down, they finally looked like proper comrades now that they were sitting side by side and drinking, although the blonde quickly stood up and started walking in your direction.

‘’…I think it might be time to get my own drink… ah but I don’t have any money’’

After all you literally got kidnapped into this place, it’s not exactly charity when you literally have no options left, right?

‘’Oh oh? Well then I’ll get you something, you stay right here’’
With a strange spring in her steps and radiance of bright colors your short lived discussion with Berenice died there as she walked toward the bar, her previous seat quickly filled by the French blonde who looked a little worked up, her cheeks were slightly rosy while her emotions appeared in pinkish red.

Hmm… it’s becoming easier to read her.

‘’Sooo, my little Kat… What do you think of our place so far?’’

That’s a question you aren’t sure how to answer…

--

[Shigeko]

‘’…that’s about it’’

Adam concludes with a grunt, looking down toward his whiskey with his usual serious face even as he tries to relax.

‘’While I understand why the European Union and the UN want to employ us this request by Russia is definitely perplexing’’

Your friend and superior simply nod while downing half of his glass, staying silent for a moment as he looked over the bar, prompting you to glance toward Ekaterina who, surrounding by Berenice, Alexandrine and now Alfonso, was quite happily downing a few glasses with the good company of the Eishi who were talking about some… rather peculiar events, something related to Alexandrine first steps inside the carrier.

Ah yes, that moment when you literally boxed her to the ground to calm her down.

‘’I think it’s about her’’

Adam gesture his chin toward the white haired girl who’s trying her best not to grimace while tasting the various alcohol.

‘’She’s an esper, I doubt the USSR want to let her go that easily.’’

‘’But would they try an armed conflict with a PMC?’’

You ask back, your own glass contain a non-alcoholic juice, you’ve been strictly against the stuff, along with drugs, after a bad episode with stimulants.

‘’Who knows? They’re putting twice the money than the UN and EU, whatever it is they’re gearing up for must be pretty damn important, much more than thinning the herds around Britain and the Suez Canal anyway’’

A few laugh erupts, enough to drive a brief silence in your discussion.

‘’What about the activity of Alt V in Africa?’’

‘’Bogus’’

He answers, finishing his glass.

As the second-in-command, these decisions aren’t unknown to you, but it seems that today, even the stalwart leader seems perturbed by the potential offer, three contracts falling into the lap of the PMC at once… It’d leave anyone stunned.

‘’What do you think? I’m not certain about what’s going on in Victor head but he does take our opinions seriously’’

‘’I think Europe is the safest bet; they’ve always been too busy with the BETA to grow complacent, beside they’ve been honest almost to a fault.’’

Your CO simply answers with a grunt, then shake his head when a laugh erupt from the gathered Eishi as he gesture for a refill.

‘’Let’s hope everyone on the boat manage to forgive that day then’’

This sentence bring back very bad memories, you can only give a half-hearted nod toward Adam and excuse yourself, your mind filled with what if and buts as you ponder about the various assignments, the communist are definitely the odd ones out; shouldn’t they be busy with PROMINENCE to try and hire a bunch of mercs?

Then again the Middle-East doesn’t sound any better; at least the Euro Front has history with the PMC, although the latest assignments with them were more than a year ago and a complete disaster.

It was in summer 2000, Lower Saxony.

An otherwise routine culling operation changed into a complete and total fiasco when the high command was shifted to the UN who were, apparently, a bunch of inexperienced pencil pushers with something to prove, who for some unknown reasons decided to completely take over the mission during its later stage of planning, relieving the EU by providing their own manpower, although small Europeans task forces were left here and there during the shift.

Amongst them counted the 44th Tactical Armor Battalion Cerberus and the 12th Tactical Armor Battalion Élysée, under whom the newly promoted Alexandrine was a part of.

Now that you know all the facts there was only one way this operation could end, but in the field the PMC had to make do and this resulted in the loss of 6 compatriots to the hordes of BETA, if it weren’t for the elite Task Force Cerberus the entire squad would have been wiped out to a man without a doubt, but if it also weren’t for you,

Alexandrine would have been rammed and died during the confusion of this shoddy job.

Regardless, with such a disaster, it wouldn’t be farfetched to keep a grudge over something like that.
But you, you were more fascinated by how those rescuers fought than anything else.

[06:05 PM]

‘’Ish… true… I’ll be the best pilot!’’
You never knew your pupil could be so….
Right now everyone is sitting near the same tables, you and Ekaterina taking your own bench as the girl is literally spread all over you, putting her head on your side and forcing your arm under her chin as you just… awkwardly sit there.

‘’Of course!’’

In front of you Alfonso tap the table, the entire bar has erupted in cheers and drunken conversation, with only you and Adam still master of yourselves and condemned to look over the idiocies.

‘’I’ll give you a freebie too, I’m a vet, and advices from vet are the best you’ll see’’
He’s trying pretty hard to help Kat fit in.
‘’Buuh, I didn’t chose you’’

The small Russian nuzzle closer like a cat, letting out a small ‘hyuuuun’’ as she make herself comfortable while your squadmate give you the strangest of smiles.

‘’You know what? I’m going to challenge those two to darts, see ya in a bit!’’

And away he goes, disrupting Berenice throw by throwing her arms around hers and Mirabelle shoulders…
‘’Saaay, can I take tchomorow off?’’

She barely drank anything but it was more than enough to reduce make her a cat, if only you had a pair of artificial
ears…

>Nope

>Go back home before she get sick

‘’I GOT IT!’’

You immediately start squirming out of the booth as Ekaterina scream out, you thankfully catch her empty drink before it shatter on the ground and rudely put it back on the table as you force her forward and then grab her up bridal style, not before readjusting your lovely cap and squinting to see more effectively through your aviator glass.

Of course the entire bar is looking at you, poor Ekaterina is completely stunned but, for some reason she murmur something, a color.

Aw hell she barely has any in her system but was that enough to break something with that power of hers?

‘’Shi?’’

Your good friend Berenice who was previously occupied with leading her dart game is the first one to break the silence and, you make sure to gesture toward the small white haired Russian comfortably nestled in your arms and probably scared for her life.

‘’I’m going on a magical adventure!’’

‘’Shit! I want in!’’

Alfonso speaks up, trying to squeeze through the two girls without success.

‘’After your taunts? Hell no!’’

--

During the brouhaha you quickly exit into the night and realize you can’t see jack shit through your glass, thankfully Ekaterina grab them and put them on as the neon lights of the commercial district fills your vision with all kinds of useless stuff, the music of the clubs can be heard through the busy streets full of foreigners and Japanese.

‘’Can I have them in my TSF?’’

The girl asks as she tries to fit the glass on her face, which are slightly too bit so they constantly fall around the bridge of her nose.
Where the hell will you find cat ears inside this mess?

‘’L-love?’’

Reinforce stereotypes inside your homeland always bring the warmest of butterfly inside your belly, nothing like a Japanese turned foreigner being the rudest type of person imaginable by bumping into the crowd on quest of the Holy Grail.

‘’Outta the way!’’

Thus you cause one hell of a commotion, Ekaterina throw her hands around your neck and tries her best to make herself as small as possible, you pass by your fair share of oddballs with pompadour and some cops who, instead of giving chance, simply watch you go without a fuss, all the while causing misery for horny boy and curious dames alike and many, many a swears follows your back, making the young Esper laugh but also, you identified your little troupe of squadmates doing their best to tail you.

Well well isn’t that something… problem is, you won’t be able to lose them because you may have just made a very lucky find!

A sex shop advertising all kinds of fetish accessories!

….

Of course you don’t need to see half of your pupil face obscured by the aviator glass to know her astonishment; she may be drunk enough to become very huggable, but not to the point that she’ll forget everything tomorrow.

First she gets the only life she's ever known taken away from her, then she overuses her powers to the point where it temporarily coma'd her, then we worked her so hard that she puked up and almost fell off of the carrier, and now she will have been forcefully raped, and had to watch her dear mentor broken in front of her, all of this in a fairly short time span.

The despair would be unimaginable.

‘’S-shi?’’

Seem like Ekaterina is the kind to stutter in these out of control situation, good, good this’ll be a valuable learning experience that’ll prove to be much more useful than previously thought down the line!

Or maybe she’ll have to wear cat ears constantly…

‘’Y-You…I see…purple and rose and… oooh…’’

The poor, poor little esper put her hands under the glass to cover her eyes as you penetrate the establishment, opening the way with your strong, long appendage and come face to face with a rude mix of purple neon’s that make you regret discarding your valuable pair of sunglass but…

Damn there’s a lot of stuff in here, dragon didoes, light to hard S&M stuff, lubricants, moaning boxes… the clerk is also a woman, tall short haired and relatively busty with clothes to match the establishment without outright breaking any laws of decency, as if those should apply inside this place anyway.

‘’Oh?’’

Seeing a pair of women in military garb with one holding the other bridal style as if she just got kidnapped isn’t exactly the most common sight, but then again, so is this place.

‘’Can I help you?’’

Politeness sounds strange in here, but you did come with an objective in mind.

‘’I want ears, cat ears’’

You proclaim loudly, with Ekaterina sufficiently embarrassed you fully expect her to shut down and it does seem like she wants to disappear into your arms.
It’s a very lovely sight.

‘’And a tail, yes. A magnificent white tail to go with white ears along with her ears, or maybe I should take them in black? Hmm… yes black will do, also nothing that needs… insertion, a clip will do just fine, you’ve got that right?’’

While taking you gesture toward a peculiar displayed outfit with a small whip and of course full of (fake) leather that wasn’t too pricy, your entire speech was made in order to keep Ekaterina as embarrassed as possible and, judging by her hands covering her eyes and the way her face grew red, you’ve accomplished your little sneak buy without a hitch as the clerk give you a knowing smile and gather your items.

Not that you have anything lewd in mind of course, this outfit is just…. A guilty pleasure, a nice, very nice, guilty pleasure.

--

‘’Thank you for your business!’’

Thankfully your items were placed in a completely opaque black bag and now that the sweet, sweet release is finally within reach your pupil has stopped trying to squash her eyes.

‘’…I-I won’t go nyaa or anything… wh-why did you even buy it…’’

Indeed, why have you bought them?

Oh, OK. And how good is an 11?
Also, if the 1 and the 20 cancelled each other, wouldn't the highest roll be >>25442220?

>>25442297
It wasn't in the first 5. 11 is half decent usually. Unless he specifies that we had a high DC to overcome it means we aren't totally screwed or, if it was something simple or easy, we succeeded.

We came out on the good side of a 50/50 chance. So at the very least I hope we get to hold on to the stuff we recently purchased. Ekatarina Miki is a go!

‘’You look quite adorable, you know that?’’

You say as you step outside, provoking an awkward ‘’a..haha…’’ as she look at you through the aviator glass, then squirm in your arm as she glance toward the bag, all the while you look in the alley in between the shop and what look like the entrance to a strip club where a bunch of thugs leer at you, which provoke you to rudely move your chin toward given that your hands are relatively occupied and, when one of them tries to be tough and move, Adam sudden appearance at your side is more than enough to dissuade any kind of bravado, which also make the lovely Russian even more embarrassed.

‘’You know we’ll have to go back soon right? Anyway I’ll lead the two of you, your stunts weren’t exactly welcomed but hey, they’ll have to put up with it’’

[Ekaterina]

Never before in your life have you felt like dying for entirely superficial circumstances.

Right now you are in the bathroom with your mentor who forcefully entered the bar that became strangely active at your arrival and she… zipped in here with you and started pampering you like your mom would during Christmas Eve, and right now you feel like a deer in front of the proverbial car as the Royal Guard smile from ears to ears as she finished clipping the tail juuuuust right while you fiddle with the collar and bell.

The faux pair of cat ears is perfectly adjusted on your head too; right now you look at yourself in the mirror and feel like smashing it to get an excuse to avoid walking out.

You swear, her eyes are literally shining, you can’t concentrate enough to read her for now, beside you don’t even care about that!

Somehow taking on a gallant persona, Shigeko walk toward the door, placing her hand on it as you continued fiddling with the cute little bell.

‘’Um… well… do I really need to…why?’’

You fiddle trying to find a reason for such… a costume, yes it’s a costume, cosplay in fact, Japanese are very fond of them aren’t they?

Dring.
Dring.

Well maybe that bell isn’t too bad…

‘’Think of this as needed character building to become a proper Tactical surface Pilot, it’ll look good on your resume’’

Very funny. She just wants you to go out and make a fool of yourself! What’s next would going Nyaa~ help at all?

‘’Well… go get someone else then’’

‘’Eh?’’

‘’I want to be perfectly hidden behind two people’s back!’’

‘’Ekaterina, that’s not how Storm Vanguard do things…’’

So your mentor isn’t one to budge huh? Well then it’s time to bring out the ultimate weapon and throw your pride away! Fast, you form awkward claws with your hands, put them beside your head and take a lower pose.

‘’Nyaaaaaa~’’

You even pump your hands forward and backward for emphasis.

‘’Wait right there’’

And away your mentor goes.

Could it be that you hold a weakness…?

--

‘’My my…’’

The moment Berenice entered she walked toward you and petted your head, her smile gentle and peaceful as she looked you up and down.

‘’I always wanted my own cat in the base, you’ll do fine’’

Wait that’s…

‘’Well then let’s go’’

You spot Shigeko putting back her aviator glass and cross her arms, giving away some kind of faux hardy aura that, coupled with her cap, really made her ridiculous.

Maybe you need to stop being so self-conscious but cat ears, tail with collar and bell is really too much!

And so you stepped outside behind your mentor and new acquaintance, Berenice into the small little world of the bar full of mercenaries who, upon seeing you, didn’t explode in some kind of excitement as you very much feared, instead, they made a toast in your honor once you got betrayed by your escorts when they moved sideways and of course you just stood there, as you’ve gotten used too now, looking down without moving until finally, your savior came when you felt a hand on your shoulder.

‘’Well then, I propose this challenge to every other Eishi in the bar…’’

Several grunts and complaints flew his way as you decided to rethink Alfonso position of savior.

‘’I challenge each of you to a game of pool, the winner take the kitty home!’’

‘’Oooh? You’re on’’

The French girl immediately bite, strutting up the stair with a vigor that fills you with slight dread, that’s far from everything though as Adam Manley downed his drink in one go, silently stood, then walked upstairs without a word.

‘’As her mentor, I won’t yield to any of you’’

Shigeko was trying her best to look tough with those glasses but it was simply not working.

Finally, the Italian let you go, gave you a thumb up and ran upstairs where an argument started about some kind of house rules that you didn’t really care for, why the hell did the situation degenerate that fast!?

‘’Ekaterina’’

Berenice Salama snuck up to you during your stunned panic, the foreign girl put both of her hands on your shoulders and leaned toward your right ear, making certain nobody could overhear.

‘’How about I take you back to base and we let them duke it out? You’ll be safe with me’’

‘’No I…’’

With the same gentleness, Berenice slowly let go of you and goes on to pet your head, she really remind you of a big sister, much more than Shigeko who…

Who huh, how should you place her?

‘’I understand, I’ll be sure to win this game and gain the kitty I always wanted then’’

Spoken with a voice full of love, you feel yourself shuddering as her smile look more like the camouflage of a wicked beast, maybe you’ve misjudged this woman, she… might be the most fearsome person in here, this damn alcohol also seem to buzz you just enough to render your talent mostly useless.
Well it’s better than having it out of control at least.

‘’I’ll win my own game!’’

You announce, quickly following her up the stairs with the concert of your bell.

--

‘’Can’t fucking believe it’’

Adam Manley sit on one of the stool as he look at you with big eyes, as if you’ve somehow sprouted a second head or domesticated a BETA, everyone else seem equally appalled beside Berenice who somehow seem caught in laughing fit and barely able to contain.

‘’15 years of pool as stress relief and I’m beaten by the greenest of green, I feel old’’

''Did anybody ever beat you before?''

''No''

Given all the players and only a single table, along with the fact that midnight was fast approaching, the games were reduced to something small and not exactly fair, the first one to put in 5 balls won, it became clear fast when Adam started clearing floor everyone until… you went to defend yourself in the final and won, just like that, after Shigeko taught you how to play.

‘’Ah! That’s my apprentice!’’

Your mentor jump toward and put her arm around your shoulder, squeezing you tight as you try your best to squirm away.

‘’Actually, she did that on her own’’

Sure you did! Alexandrine is absolutely right!

‘’Well since she won, I think it’s only fair that each of us now owe her a favor’’

Berenice suddenly cut in and immediately afterward everyone let out an awkward sigh, then look toward Shigeko with an accusing glare, to which she simply replied with a haughty ‘’what?’’

Still, you’ve won, you beat those Eishi! (Even if you only triumphed over the CO) Now, you feel like a queen instead of a dirty cat and it’s time for them to cash in

‘’Thank you, Berenice, I’ll be taking you up on that’’
A collective sigh escape your squadmate as they try to shift blames and think up excuse but given that you had two people behind you acknowledging your success… well…
You may have won a friendly game but it still feels great!

‘’Now, I want each of you to lift me on your shoulders and carry me all the way to the car!’’

--

Thus the queen order was fulfilled, 5 perfectly grown up veteran Eishi were forced to look upward (beside Adam) every time you wanted, Berenice, Alexandrine, Shigeko and Alfonso made the best of seats by literally standing shoulder to shoulder while your tall CO used his hand to keep your back straight; overall this seat was very awkward and uncomfortable but it was also perfect for your triumph, the clamors of the other clients only added to your righteous reigns as they erupted in clapping, at your order of course for you give them a thumb up.

A few tried some up skirt looks but your friendly Italian and Royal Guard were more than enough to dissuade further adventure with stern looks, and thus your throne carried you outside; the only time you had to look downward was when you had to fit in the doorway, and finally outside you went in direction of the faraway military truck big enough to carry each of you, looking down at the plebeian like a true roman empress…
Not that there were any but one can dream, one can most certainly dream!

Beside you stand Alfonso Mariano, the second oldest Pilot of the PMC, a man that you grew to respect deeply thank to his deep sense of duty and amazing empathy without being clouded by judgements and emotions; a soldier that everyone should strive to be, if a bit too humble for his own good.

In your arms, a beautiful white and black kitty is deeply sleeping and you can’t resist a smile as a brief wave of warm emotions erupt in your chest, traveling all over your body as you remember the stupid smiles on everyone faces during tonight nonsense.

‘’I think she’ll do fine’’

You affirm your colleague who let out an awkward laugh.

‘’Hope so, I really don’t want a second Alexandrine’’

‘’Yeah…’’

You agree, solemn, as you recall the blond girl isolating herself in training modules day in and out while everyone was trying to cope with the sudden losses of comrades, it was really one of the worst time to be inside the PMC, even more so for a new recruit.

‘’Regardless, I’m glad to see this kid sleeping problems aren’t plaguing her tonight, you’ll bring her back to her bunk?’’

‘’Maybe’’

You answer back, provoking a smile as he pat your head, the guy has always been like that with you; an older brother figure, to say you aren’t projecting the image of the one you loss upon him is probably a lie but you aren’t a perfect person by any means.

‘’See you tomorrow then’’

''Good night''

You nod silently toward his back as you take in the night air.
